You have to try this!

The other day I saw this product advertised, and wondered does it work? When I heard Oxi-clean I was tempted. (I love Oxi-clean!!!)

I spotted it at Family Dollar, I thought I am going to try this!!! OH BOY!! New favorite!!!

My shower was in need a really good cleaning!! This product is AWESOME!! My shower hasn't looked this good in years. LOVE IT!!!

If your shower needs a good cleaning drop everything run to Wal-Mart or the dollar store grab a bottle. You will be glad you did.

Happy cleaning!!!

The playhouse

The playhouse has been in our backyard for as long as we have lived here. (Almost 8 years!)

Actually Matt had built it before we moved . I think parts of the house were about 10 years old.

However, with the kids getting older and time not being on the playhouses side, we had to say goodbye to it today.

Winter was really hard. We had lost part of the roof. So today the boys took it down. It was kind of sad to see it go.

Actually it is not completely gone. We are waiting for a day with a little less wind. Before we can call this job complete.

But not bad for one day.

Update after the longest break!!!!

Can you believe it? A new blog post from me. Most of you probably thought that I had dropped off the face of the earth. No such luck. I am still here. But life with the lehmans has been crazy!!!!! What do you expect with 6 kids? But never fear--I am back with a fresh blog post, filled with grammatical errors and pictures with junk in the background!!!

Yesterday, June 13, we celebrated Lauren's 15th birthday. Actually we celebrated the last two days, but who is really counting!!! Here are a couple of shots from our 2 celebrations!!!

Right now, we are in the middle of our 10 days of Bible School! Today, is day 7!! We are having a great time!! Once again, this year I am teaching in the 5th grade. I am helping head up the good deed projects. So the 5th graders have written over 125 thank you notes and they are starting to knot comforters for people in Haiti.

School ended 3 weeks ago. But of course there were many activities before it ended. Lexi was a clown in the 1st and 2nd grade musical!

(just a note: Lexi stood on risers--that is why the costume is not full length--plus they only told us a week in advance! of couse, I didn't really do anything about it til the night before!)

Landon received an award for being in the top ten percent of his class.

I have also managed to get my flowers planted. With this strange spring weather we have had, they are finally starting to grow. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks we can mulch the flower beds and the place will look a little better.

Well I guess that is enough for one blog post. Maybe if I posted more than every 2 months, they wouldn't be so long? I don't know. Have a great day! :)

REALLY???

Looking out my window, on March 30, and this is what I see.

Really--snow!!! At the end of March? This would be beautiful in November---not March.

Hope you have a great day--anyway.

Another exciting day of Spring Break

I realize almost everyone went some place fun and exciting over Spring Break and we are no exception. On Monday, Lauren and I loaded the truck and headed out for a new adventure!!!

You see here at the Lehman house, our washing machine has been giving us some trouble. So while the part we need is on order we headed to our local laundry mat. What an adventure!!

We hauled all 8 loads into the building. (I only did laundry once last week, since I had spent a good part of Wednesday doing laundry for the musical.)

We got a few of them going at a time so they all wouldn't finish at the same time.

We did run into a little problem. But a kind AMISH woman doing her laundry their told me how to fix it! Yes, the amish woman, who doesn't have electricity at home, told me how to fix the problem.

It was great fun watching all the machines work at the same time!!! It wasn't much fun loading 13 quarters into each machine. :(

All washed, ready to dry!!!

Drying!!!!

Lesson learned while at the Laundry mat: It is really a fast!!! Not real cheap, but fast.

So if you ever have a ton of laundry and need it done quickly---go to the laundry mat. But here are a few tips.

Take baskets for each member of your family (that will save time when you get home and have to separate all the clean laundry).

The change machine will give you quarters for a $20. (That is a lot of quarters)

Take lots of hangers too!!

Don't bother with a book--we didn't really have much spare time.

So, that was a fun adventure. Give it a try some time!

A fun start to SPRING BREAK

The first weekend of Spring Break was a great one for us. We spent Saturday night with my Grandparents at their retirement home.

It was great to see them again and catch up with them. We did most of the talking; however, it is always fun to hear what they have been up too.

The big thing there was that the bird cage near Grandpa's room just received new birds. Hey don't laugh they are really fun to watch.

While we were there, Grandma Cathy pulled Lexi's front tooth!

Sunday, we had the chance to spend the evening with my other set of Grandparents.

Yes, if you are doing the math, I still have both sets of grandparents. We are truly blessed and totally enjoyed our time with them this weekend.

A final post about OK

I know the musical has been almost 2 weeks ago, but it has taken me about that long to recover from the whole thing.

The kids did a great job and once again I learned alot. The kids were great to work with (most of the time).

Here's a quick shot of my friend Danna and her son Jamison (one of Logan's friends). This is the second year that Danna and I have worked together on the costumes. She is great to work with. We had a ton and fun!!!

Lauren and a few of her friends in the dressing room.

If you have a teenage girl at home and think her room is a mess--you should multiply that by 39--oh boy--I mean oh girls!! Check out the mess in the background. The room looked like that every night all week! I never saw the boys dressing room so who knows, what that looked like.

Logan and a few of his friends.

This cute little lady was the greatest gal in the world to work with. She was always telling us how awesome we were. We just loved her!!!!

Well after 2 wonderful performances and a lot of late nights, this was all that was left.

Four loads of dirty laundry.

I washed that up last week and returned it to the school. So in our book, this puts an end the musical---until next year!!! The fun will start all over again.
